YEREVAN, February 5. /ARKA/. Russian Ambassador to Armenia Nikolay Pavlov is happy about interregional cooperation between the two countries.

“Russian-Armenian interregional cooperation developed properly in 2008, and 70 regions of Russian Federation were involved in the cooperation to different degrees”, he said while speaking at a press conference in Novosti International Press Center on Thursday. “Legal and organizational basis of these ties is developing”.

The Russian diplomat said that Armenia signed agreements on cooperation with Moscow and Middle Ural regions in 2008 alone.

He said that the agreements on cooperation between Armenian Government and Sverdlov Region and between Armenia’s Armavir and Russia’s Yaroslav regions were signed during Russian President Dmitri Medvedev’s visit to Yerevan.

“Preparation of joint mid-term cooperation programs by two countries is very promising. Moscow and St. Petersburg have programs signed with Yerevan”, the ambassador said.

He said that Moscow regional authorities have sent a program on cooperation with Armenian Government for approval, “making it possible to work for the future and saturate contacts with practical content”. -0-
